Without question­ ing the s H us K mi « ps sre trtuis regards to the war, the public i* very sk^ptiali <jf tala idK^aflid rubber shortage. The public U denied tire* due to a rubber ahtwinge, yet Jewe Jonea, Secretary o f Commerce and head o f the Refinance Corporation aa well aa New Dealer on several government board*, stated in the Tuesday preee there was plenty o f rub­ ber and that it waa being imported from South America at the rate o f 35,000 tons a month and that the surplus of crude in the nation amounted to 500,000 tone, A few weeks ago Jones informed the public, Philippine rubber waa not coming into the country because, most o f our ........ shipping capacity was on the Atlantic taking butter, beans, beef, pork and lard to England and returning loaded with Scotch whisky and English china and; woolen goods. About the best crop being turned out by the New Deal are public and professional liars on matters that are o f vital im­ portance to the public. As Radio Commentator Kaltenbom stated a few ’ evenings ago, the different agencies in-Washing­ ton should at least get together and tell the same rubber story,^ whether true or not, Dike* the AAA reports to farmers, the automobile world will soon get a belly-full of the deceit and deception forced on the nation during a war .emergency. We would rather believe the Scotch whisky was having a telling effect on official Wash­ ington, TWENTY STUDENTS OFFER SACRIFICE—AAA GREEDY Twenty young men and women who are'students o f Hard­ ing College, Searcy, Ark., endowed by events o f the times and their desire fo r loyally1to the nation during war, wanted to do something for their country." Each had been receiving $10.50 a. month, a total o f $210 a month, from the National1Youth Administration. They de­ cided the government needed the money 'more than they need- ( ed such'support and they all took up outside employment to earn enough to put them through school. They eommunic&ted with NYA headquarters in Washing­ ton and the unusual did not happen.there, as Aubrey Williams, the administrator o f NYA issued an insulting blast through the press, rather than thanking the students fo r their generosity. He stated “ That if Harding College students did not want NYA money, plenty o f students in other colleges do want it and they will get it.” In contrast /we. call the attention of Chairman Joseph B. Mason o f the Greene County AAA to the offer o f the Harding College students. When Master Farmer O. A. Dobbins issued a statement that he would be willing, and he thought other farmers would also be willing, to drop acceptance o f govern­ ment checks under the AAA for the duration o f the war. The Dobbins statement has been endorsed by many farm publica­ tions but it Was Mr. Mason who gave a public reply to Mr. Dobbins* proposal that implied rebuke because such a move­ ment Would cut the AAA managers off the government payroll. Contrast the generous proposal of young folks willing to _ _ tti the stock market by selling down sacrifice their stipend o f government support with the veiled vin the wheat and corn pits previous greed o f Mr. Mason to hold on to his public salary, which is " evidently much more than the average farmer can net from pi 150-acre farm. The AAA and New Deal congressmen are determined to keep their fingers oh the government gravey bowl, regardless o f What it costs farmers ot urban citizens, ‘ SENATOR BURTON ASKS PENSION REFEAL Senator Burton, Republican, Ohio, has introduced a bill to abolish a proposed New Deal life pension fo r members o f con­ gress and Franklin D. Roosevelt, which was railroaded through Congress by New Deal leaders. To the credit o f the Ohio Re- ^ublican delegation, let it be understood it opposed the measure . but had no choice fo r individual vote due to the fact the NeW Dealers did not want a record vote. A wave o f criticism has swept the nation over the passage o f the act and now a number o f Democratic members are ask­ ing repeal, especially in the Senate. House New Dealers are opposing repeal. That such a thing should be contemplated when members draw $10,000 salaries while the whole nation is being taxed to death to pay for the New Deal billion dollar deficit outside o f the billions needed for war purposes is almost unbelievable yet not Unexpected when you take into consideration you have as irresponsible spend-thrift in the White House as could be found in the slums o f any city. The family record is all that is necessary fo r proof o f the national debt. Gov. Lehman, D., NeW York, just last summer finished.paying the last o f the hundred million dollar debt Franklin Roosevelt left when he was governor o f that state. - A ! Capone paid his debt in prison for no greater or Serious crime to society than is being inflicted upon the people o f this nation today in the graft and reckless spending o f the New Dealers. Democratic chairman Edward J. Flynn ,thinks the Re­ publicans have planned to upset the war and' accuses leaders o f not being loyal tp the government. Some New Dealers have also urged that all congressional elections be abolished for the duration o f the war—that, they can keep covered the present day grafting on war contracts while parading behind the American flag. The pension plan is a plain steal on the part o f the New Deal. The Republicans have taken the lead to stop it and will have public .sentiment behind them regardless of New Deal excuses in the future. At tit* restart fern (taftaMe west-' tag 1* CahtadMM, * New Deal repre­ sentative frent Cleveland in speaking abort the robber tire s&uutkm stat­ ed there had been a treat dapltaatien in th* rural district* in regard to col­ lection o f milk, distribution o f bread nod everyday cenuaedttks, as well as double tracking o f school bus­ es, all of which must and will be dis­ continued in the near future, Instead a pWff*mast be worked out where only one milk'truck will cover a cer­ tain territory the same day and the same 'for bread, This would mean farmers will have to sell their product to whatever, company is assigned to a certain territory by the federal authorities. Such a plan would be necessary to save rubber tires which would be scarcer as the months go by; We read o f the death a few,days ago o f Samuel E. Kiser,. 80, at his home In New Rochelle, N, W. He was for two years editor of the Dayton News, having come to that city from Chicago where he wrote a daily column for the now extinct Chicago Record-Herald. Leaving Dayton he joined the New York American. Kis­ er is the' author o f a number o f books. Well does the‘ writer remember him anti many times?have we enjoyed his fellowship while in Dayton. He was i bosom, friend of the late Wilbur D. Nesbit ‘and often accompanied Mr. Nesbifc here when the latter came to Cedarville to spend a day With his parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Nesbifc. Sen. Tidings, D., Md., is demanding i congressionarinvestigation into,the iibber shortage. He seems tq have information there is more rubber“in the country than the government ad; uits. He might investigate the story in rubber circles that certain financial interests have two million in.rubber n hiding in this country for specula­ tive purposes, knowing far in advance he government had a plan worked >ut to take over the rubber control. The Pearl Harbor attack dumped the ict-up onto the public over night. Rubber is not the only thing that night be investigated. The Senator night investigate reports o f the enor- nous profits New‘Dealers have taken o Wickard’s announcements that • few million bushels o f grain was to be thrown on the market to send prices down to lower levels.

Papers to be graded by the state de- partment. r Prof, Lowry Nelson o f the Univer­ sity o f Minnesota in an address be­ fore “Farmer's Week” in that state stated that a draft for f«rm labor will be necessary to harvest crops this season, He was critical of the’ federal system o f trying to supply farm labor, most of which is unfit for the farm in any rural section. He suggests a selective system for draft­ ing farm labor just as we have for the army, He says if the farmers are to contribute the food to win the war they must be provided the right kind of labor at wages farmers can afford to pay. In other words New Deal wages cannot be paid for farm labor at present government controlled .prices. If farm labor was drafted and assigned to a,certain farm the laborer could not leave without .word from Washington when probably the farm owner and the laborer by mutual con­ sent might agree to any form of “desertion." Drafting labor as sug­ gested by the Professor is much af­ ter the plan advocated by Mrs. Roose­ velt for drafting female help as “farmerettes” at so much a month in the field or factory. We hope Mrs. Roosevelt's plan is adopted. The ex­ perience would be one o f the economic novelties of the age. We best what is regarded as a truthful statement of a local citizen who applied for a civil service job at Fairfield, Application was made and in a few days notice was received tm, report the following day. Not know­ ing just what kind of work he would be .assigned to, he stressed the neces­ sity o f knowing beforehand as he had a decent job and wages in Cedarville. There was then intimation that he had applied for a job and it was open and-yeiled threats were made that he could be forced to accept. Not lik­ ing the manner in which his applica­ tion was treated, there Was a called conference among “higher-ups” at Fairfield and at once he Was informed that his status was changed mid that he was to be assigned to a job at $1,* 800 a year instead o f $1,360 under hit original application. He is now on the $1,800 job. wkm r m \fcja jm P 8 ru * m WHrrTwm ffn w MP $6 Wttlpp 1MMNHfef1MMM# Tfl lfUh Atilt1* SM& mmi mm I U mi HyMN to ba added M e a*riag ta ear* far Muctro hwp ittAMlitoSi** m AAM nni af {ha “ Cm*.* Bawds type, a hornets next was teen wide apsau FDR in his caustic remark uiam t hava rsfaremu to the “ rsd-Ufkf* dfaferiat in Wash- tegtau bet %a the aadM and poiitiaal sat that desires ta ba edeae to upper- crust society dutrag the winter sea- ion, a large part o f which comes form its own Fifth aw., crowd in New York, We are informed the list of those that eat at the White House table each day in numbers a least, rival some o f the l i t and 116 a da\ hotels in that city.

BUY DEFENSE STAMPS Secretary Morgenthau, a Fifth Ave, New York playboy, ehumb o f FDR, Secretary of the Treasury having the authority over Federal Housing pro­ jects last Week placed his 26-year-old son in charge of a huge project in Cleveland at a salary of $15,000 a year and expenses. Being of draft age and single this should be interest­ ing to the sons o f Democratic families serving in the army “somewhere” at $21 a month. As the war is on both Sides of this country even the front pages of the daily press no longer carry stories o f assignments and pro­ motion for the Roosevelt sons, Where are they and why the sudden dis­ appearance front the public press t Plans have been completed for Ce- darville College's annual Homecoming to be. held Saturday. February 7 at the Alford Memorial Gymnasium. Dinner is to ba served at 6 o'clock. Following the dinner an interesting program will be 'presented. An or­ chestra composed mainly of college students will play,* It will be directed by Edward Bads, Cedarville High School music instructor. Coach C. D. Pyatfe and his Cedar cagers anticipate a dose, hard-fought battle when they tangle with Btuffton College in the traditional Homecom­ ing game. After the game, dancing and an informal social hour o f visita­ tion will be enjoyed. Though the college has made vari­ ous adjustments to conform to the present day needs, Homecoming has not been affected. Persons ,ip charge hope for a record crowd, A special effort should be made by local Ce- darvilte alumni to attend. The cost of sixty-five cents (66c) covers all the evening’s proceedings; a good dinner, an interesting program, an exciting basketball game, dancing and the fond visitation with old friends and former classmates. The Homecoming Committee it headed by Mrs, Rloise Kling, with Miss Glenna Basons and Coach C.

YOU FIGURE IT—WE CANT To the Editor:— I am puzzled to know how some farmers can get rich by not farming, I have gone sloiyr with theplan. Rais- hogs. They say we must have morf pork but how can w* get feed for M Cutting off 10 acres for com means the average yearly loss to me o f some 800 bushels o f com. Allowing 26 bush­ els to feed ,out a-hog, this acreage would fatten 82 head o f 260 pound hogs for market. At 12c a pound each hog would bring $60, or a total of $960. How can I expert much profit by taking a government check fOi* around $200? I must admit, there is some labor in producing 10 acres o f com and feeding 82 hogs. For this labor I would get $260 but by cooperating I only get $200—o f course I do not hate to work to get it. I must pay thelsame tax on the ten acres work or no-work, so I am satisfied myself with the extra profit by my own labor. , A Farmer For Profit Mam. . . baag*!*2beem! sartame t!*Orecra<!ker*!*«- 0 ) (braakaway bada**Tt:-*l shots. . .more aorealas "•*!*te*a*OB*n la other word*. : What's all the noise?
